gerri:. >> i am denis deal tonight the jobs report rocks on austria but jumping get the national debate whether to boost the minimum wage and extend to receive unemployment benefitsand there's a laundry and emergency? but the real reason obamacare is failing and ready far deeper than on the web site also of are the katy imperial bureaucracy in washington bureaucrats ever reaching like never before coming up. and tonight we have a

surprisingly good report on the unemployment jobless rate goes down at 7.o% as 203,000 jobs were added but how good was their real or is a more or less of government steroids with benefits and middle-aged? we have stevedore from "the wall street journal." and jonas harris we appreciate you beingere. qualities he give the jobs report today? to back we are in the middle because you what the economy to improve but not want to the fed to stop totally but yet you want to show it is getting better because sees earnings have to grow so the goldilocks scenario is the underlying growth would pick up and yet pick up later but

then not have a crash when the rates go higher. dennis: you say the stocks go down with good news because we are scared of they will tie ended? but today they went up triple digits is there such an attitude to where i think the economy will go okay? >> fortunately a part of that is the investors are confident coming back to the stock market. it will go up even just people thinking it is up. >> what did you think of the report today? >> solid but not spectacular. to reduce thousand jobs is a good bumper but every other indicator was positive. most importantly we saw improvement of the for sandage other americans in

the workforce. i s happy with this report but we should not be celebratory i remember in the '80s and '90s we had five budgets thousand jobs in one month but it there is no such styles as to get the jobs created. i would be a happy camper. i think this is a superstition that if you get a good jobs report it is bad for stocks. dennis: about the labor participation rate up that 63 percent. before win the participation rate -- rate went up bottom plant that builds up because we do look for a job that cows as the unemployed but that all -- but now it went down even though for diipation went up isn't that the double bonus? >>. [laughter] did was mystery.

friday you should touch on that it was good news but with the established trend survey one was the survey of households that runs about half the number of new jobs every month for the last year. we get some conflicting pictures about how good the jobs pitcher rlly is. dennis: what will the need for the obama and admistration and what she did? werke aig is great news. he had a bad couple of weeks with the launch but it shows the policy put in place years ago are paid dividends. where people are participating and it is good all-around heading into the holiday season where people have confidence and spent more buddy it shows we have

to stay the course talking to about jobless benefits that helps to fuel the growth for people to participate and this creates more jobs. congress has to make sure it is a fragile recovery they cannot have that same sort of brings michelle to threaten to appear the debt ceiling and ready to get up a deal when we are supposed to. >> in the '80s and '90s we did not have just a tax increase of cuts but that have been dip this year that could have called is like having 400,000 jobs created because we're not in stimulus motive to do more. it was good news.

>> so if we have a government is shut down assembly will have a quarter reported taken off for gdp what a powerful economic engine and then we have third quarter gdp growth of 3.6% invested a couple years it a good jobs ever. i thought the sequester were be devastating? >>. >> the more it cuts spending the better for the private sector when dispense the dollar i don't understand the logic. >> we pay people borrow money not to work and people are working. that does not make sense. >> to give emergency

benefits where does the money come from? >> if we give youa tax cut they will put it in their pocket. >> we have to make sure that people need the jobs and food get it. >> with 47 million people? people largely a pretty go job. >> of course, the we should not said that giving a lot more welfare benefits was better for t economy that it be better with 30 billion forth three or four years. if you pay people monday not to work fed you get people not working. is not a phd formulation.

, as we have cut back the economy seems to have been improving. >> the economy is getting better despite the cuts. >> we have a cutback of certain stains that have increased sometates have stayed the same. it has not necessarily bad the emergency benefits and has spent a planet going forward and that is being debated very fiercely in washington but the economy is coming back and if we want to maintain this gross we have to do what spurs said and emergency benefit and even jobless. we don't wantto keep them unemployed. they have got to get back into the workforce but those people would rather be working right now standard day a living and they got the economy starts to continue those jobs 37 we

have to do the things we can keep doing we have to shut down the government said the economy will more. kim so when we return of loit to hot-button issues extended 99 weeks' unemployment benefits again after is the great recession ended. an addictive making source. stick around hi honey, did you get e toaster cozy?

is said the jobs created our service level jobs. a lot of people who have been through world war i of the unionized workers are of manufacturing paint is working in the service ctor. then now these people go to work but now the government has to subsidize. stay back he is the thing. at with a wife and three children be i should not expect to work at mcdonald's and of mang enough money to support the bill finally earned minimum-wage maybe i should not have had those three children. if that helps the of for the wide we just say everybody has to release $50 an hour now we solve poverty? why doesn't that work?

>> iwant you to be visited by a three spirits but tha is a little ridiculous. reedy to make sure people are giving enough wages so they can live. some people can all they become the fry cooks. what are we supposed doo-doo? let the people subsidize them? that is what happens then of. people were caged for wal-mart or a fast food chain. and 80 to be subsidized by the government. >> what about they to be all of their own what about higher wages no panacea? those that were higher as the usualall higher than the national rate and pay higher wages but then the us dash poverty and illinois.

adjust the problem with having a supply of that now is you want people to go into the hot labor market when it iseak otherwise they would flood the market to cause a depression. dennis: now we move on to a second topic extending jobless benefits understanding they read the between 36 weeks there you can get them up today denied weeks. the nional bureau for economic research tells us when the recession begins and ends dida study. we believe that primary reasons for logger high on a planned rate since the great recession is because of extended federal payments for unemployment. i aid to know a guy who said when he gets two years of unemployed he will stop working and work on a novel but the study says would you give unemploymentenefits

in a market you end up keeping a higher level of pay on the jobs that are filled because the wages stay higher companies to do not create new jobs and unemployment stays high. both parties want to extend 99 weeks even though we are passing the crisis. >> title think the republicans to but it is on a high priority for the president. that study makes common sense everody knows if you give them 52 weeks of the employee benefits they look for a job after 50 weeks if you give them 75 they will work at 73. we know people like that so wedded to extend those benefits you essentially pay people. don't forget how we pay for those benefits through payroll taxes. how crazy is this program?

pretax employers for hiring them and pay people not to work? is one of the craziest programs. >> i think there is some truth to your argument that may come as a rprise but there are also factors to be weighed entire sectors were wiped out in the last recession so it is hard to find suitable employment. >> gives the economy and adapt. >> sometimes you need more time to do that and that is why you get more time. >> died nine weeks? , 99 weeks? jedi that should do it if you cannot block did you go work at mcdonald's sadek but they're not be anymore because we will raise the battle waged.
